From Art Nouveau to modern minimalism



One cannot visit Brussels without being struck by its impressive architecture, from the ornate traditional buildings on the Grand Place to the plethora of Art Nouveau townhouses scattered throughout the city. This style guide begins with a collection of period photos of the city and in the main body features detailed photos of Brussels’s loveliest interiors, including works by renowned Art Nouveau architect Victor Horta, the minimal home designed by Vincent van Duysen, the classic antique-filled apartment by Axel Vervoordt, and examples of the work of interior designers Lionel Jadot and Agnes Emery.
